The site was previously used for tenement housing which was later cleared, leaving the site to be used as the girl’s playground for the neighbouring Kelvinhaugh Primary School.
A planning statement submitted with the application, reads: "The main body of the facade is defined by recessed brickwork which have an asymmetrical relationship to the windows. There is a higher ratio of brickwork to glazing to underline the residential character of the proposal.

"The fourth storey is set directly above the cornice datum of the adjacent former Kelvinhaugh Primary building. Here the facade line steps back to further respond to the adjacent corner. A cut out the corner of the facade reinforces the relationship to the former school building."
